Hi Bee Bush man. Is this your second flow hive. Didn’t you put one in your wife’s garden some time back? What happened to the first flow hive? Have you still got the first one? David. KD Kurabees Brisbane.

This progect should be heaps of fun, I was just taken aback how much my back yard was looking like your back yard with hives everywhere! I just had an Oh No! Moment. I just realized my wife is a lot more patient than I give her credit for. 10:41 hope no one important was there have a sky diving party LOL! They are very understanding bees, not a single roar! Isn't interesting about the angry bees vs the chilled bees and productivity. I must admit to owning 1 hive who are a little more ready to go to war, they really do load up with honey compared to the other hives, it is an interesting conundrum you can be faced with. I have kept them, as they go good, and only get up set when I rip the brood nest apart generally. ( And the guard bees do carry a grudge! I have learnt!)Bit like a wife referred to as " Pretty Special that Woman" Crikey, Duck and cover BBM! Thanks for a great laugh! Stay safe!

Mark thank you for NOT bagging out Flow Hive for the cost of their hive. Yes they are expensive but so is extracting equipment. I now have 3 flows, one not painted yet( this was a gift ) 2 going well plus 4 Langstroth love have both types of hives. Great video as usual gentlemen. Highlight of my week

Well Hello Down There! It's fun to see you having to set up a Flow-Hive 2 for your wife :) She's one sharp cookie in my opinion! Wait, there's a "Flow-Club"? (';')( ';')... where's that? I wish you all the best and hope your wife enjoys tending her hive and watching the honey flow out into her jars someday in the not too distant future. Good of you to take time out of your commercial beekeeping day to set her up.

Yes, the Flow Hive is not for most commercial beekeepers, and yes, it is expensive. But I can say this because I own two Flow Hives, they are they most well made hive I have ever seen. And they make these with Cedar, which is a superior wood with a triple R-Value than pine. Yet with the Backyard beekeeper, they are the answer. Just saw two videos where two small commercial beekeepers invested in over 60 Flow Hives and sold all their extractors and extra equipment.

It is a great thing for the backyard beekeeper. Not for the commercial beekeeper. If you have a small number of hives (10 or less) it is allot cheaper to go this route than to have to buy the centrifugal extractor, strainer and cleanup. the flowhive does the honey extracting, there is no strainer and the bees do the cleanup. Plus the time to acquire the same amount of honey is half if not less than the traditional method.

Nice job Mark, highly recommend rolling melted wax onto the Flow frames before you put them to work to encourage the girls along. The windows are only an indication of what is really happening, you need to do a frame inspection to ensure that enough cells are capped before a harvest. I think The Flowhive system is great.

Gday BBM your first comment about someone getting a queen but no bees worries me a bit as i think a some people see the flow hive and how easy it is to use and decide to be a bee keeper without doing any research at all on what is required by law and in general , now dont get your nickers in a twist everyone this would only be a small amount of people , it doesnt just occure with flow hives .I was at my local shop last week and a customer came in and started to ask the owner a lot of questions just one example was he picked up an emlock and asked whats this ? now i dont know about others but i did a lot of research into bees before i even ordered mine and i am no expert by any means but that was not the only basic question he asked which made me go away thinking hmmm and this guys going to keep bees .

I found the africanized bees handle the desert heat better then those from north. Therefore they make more honey because they live longer and don't die in heat of day.

I have a flow hive fail video that has gotten a lot of grief. I'm not saying that aren't neat systems, but it didn't work for me. The season is so short here in Canada, plus the 8 frame brood chamber just wasn't enough space for them. By watching your video I have done everything right, and it did produce honey - but overall I don't recommend them for the price of the entire system. I'm glad I tried it and have it for "show" in my bee yard. Works well as an observatory hive.
